After a crazy long hiatus, the crew over at Acidfree Gallery is back and better than ever! For their first release of 2016 they’ve teamed up with artist Tom Whalen to release two awesome sets of Transformers mini prints featuring some of favorite Generation 1 characters! The Autobots set of five mini prints includes Optimus Prime, Bumblebee, Jazz, Prowl and Ratchet, while the Decepticons set includes Megatron, Starscream, Soundwave, Shockwave and Rumble. And here’s something really cool, 30 sets of Autobots prints will include a super limited Ironhide print, while and 30 sets of Decepticons prints will include a super limited Frenzy print.

Each Transformers giclee print measures 8”x8” and comes printed on Moab Natural Rag paper. The Autobots and Decepticon sets are limited to 100 sets and will retail for $50 per set, while Variant Sets (on Slickrock Metallic Silver paper) are limited to 50 sets and will retail for $65. There’s also a killer Metal Edition Variant of both sets limited to just 5 sets that will retail for $200.

There are two one of a kind extremely rare original Transformers sketches by Tom Whalen that will be randomly inserted into the metal print sets when they ship. These are 4”x4” graphite on Bristol board drawings of Optimus Prime and Megatron. All of the prints here and so much more will go on sale at 12pm EST today, September 20th, at the Acidfree Gallery online store.
